Waterfront vacation rentals in Saint Johns River

This was the most amazing trip we’ve taken to date and having a great place to rest our heads was super important. The apartment had everything we needed and even extras! Cheryl was an amazing hostess from her quick response time to helping me create a birthday surprise for my fiance. Her and Tod were delightful the few times we saw each other. They have a stack of menus for local businesses in the nightstand which helped us find our new favorite place for when we stay again! The apartment was neat, clean and despite it being Florida, we didn’t see any buggies inside. The outside portion had so many nice places to sit, we loved every second of enjoying the outdoors in the various sitting areas. We just had an amazing time and we can’t wait to stay again. The space is beautiful and i don’t know if i can say enough to really explain just how much we enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing this space Cheryl and Tod!

The property was magnificent. The bathroom in our suite was inconvenient, located between the bedroom and the living quarters. The hideabed was uncomfortable for sitting. The grounds were beautiful, lots to see and do. would definitely go back again. Thanks for a great vacation KC.

John was a wonderful host! His arrival instructions were detailed and super helpful, and he responded to all of my questions immediately! The Airbnb was lovely, super clean, cute and exactly what we needed for the weekend (and the backyard area was the perfect place to sit near the water and relax!). If you’re looking for a peaceful space that is still super close to everything you might want to do in Tampa, I highly recommend booking a stay here! We will definitely book here again the next time we are visiting Tampa.

An absolutely beautiful place to stay! Natalia was a lovely host and was very kind to me, helping me with my luggage and bringing an electric kettle and toaster oven for me. It’s just beautiful to go and sit down on their dock and watch the sunset. I will stay here next time I am in the Saint Augustine area.

This is a beautiful and relaxing place on the river. We loved sitting in the comfy chairs by the water and saw many dolphins and manatees! We used the kayak during the day and had a nice fire at night. The space launch was a bonus and easy to view right from the property! We walked to restaurants and Kathy gave us bikes to use. She had all the beach gear you could imagine. Her and her family are very welcoming and thoughtful. Her grandson brought us fishing gear to use which my husband enjoyed. We highly recommend staying here and hope to return!

Cute and quiet stay. Perfect place for two people. Very peaceful with a beautiful little lake behind property. About 25 minutes to Universal and to Disney World. We will definitely be booking this place again

This place was amazing and not far from anything. Place was clean, private, very peaceful. The bed was to die for and like sleeping on a cloud. Definitely a gem to be had whether visiting Disney or diving the lower springs. Restaurants were very close by. Courtney was an amazing host and an amazing place

We enjoyed staying at Lesley's apt. She and Steven were very friendly and made us feel right at home. It's a very cute place, right on the lake. The lake is beautiful and the sunsets off the dock were amazing. The kitchen is well equipped and the king size bed was very comfortable. The shower was quite small but sufficient. They've done a great job making it nice and comfortable.

We were very happy to find this house. It was perfect for two couples. The best part was taking the provided kayaks out to seven sisters springs. Beautiful. There was also a canoe for those that don’t like kayaks.

We had a family reunion on one day of our week long stay and this place was PERFECT for that!! Everyone in our family was comfortable, had plenty of space to move around plus plenty of seating for 20 people... they didnt all stay there, but the day was filled with fun, family and a great place to spend it in....We really enjoyed the dock and close proximity to renting pontoon boats to go out on the lake or river for fishing.... We hope to enjoy this property again in the future for some relaxing family time... Thanks Megan for everything!!

House was clean with lots of things to do on property. Private area and relaxing. Accommodated my 10 guest.

This was my second stay at Jose’s home, and it was great once again. The home is very clean and comfortable and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the pool and spa….and had fun feeding the ducks in the pond behind the house. I highly recommend Jose’s home and hope to stay again in the near future.

Had an amazing stay at Corey’s place, which made the perfect setting for a wedding weekend with friends. The house is quiet, clean, and has a beautiful backyard on the water. Walkable to a great restaurant as well. I would recommend Corey’s place to everyone!

An amazing stay! Stacy was so helpful and responsive. The house was so beautiful and was equipped with everything you could need. We hung outside most of the weekend in the beautiful backyard. The pool was amazing, beds comfortable, and so peaceful. Love to return for another stay.

We really appreciate the detail Charles used when listing the house. It was perfect for our party of seven. The entire family enjoyed the wildlife viewing from the screen porch. We would definitely book again.

Matt’s home is a great location with many local outdoor activities to partake in on. A private dock with kayaks was our best day out in the canals to experience countless birds and plant life on the water (not sure if I’m disappointed or relieved I didn’t see alligators😜). It was the perfect outdoor private getaway we were looking for. Matt was a great communicator!

Had a great time very clean and peaceful my host was amazing and very communicative definitely coming back!

This place was very nice. It had everything you could need while down there. It felt and looked clean. The view was stunning overlooking the bay, especially for sunsets. The location is not far from the airport or downtown Tampa and then if you want to go to a beach, Clearwater and St Pete isn’t too far of a drive either. I would recommend staying here and I would stay here again!

If you want an ocean view (and a sunrise AND moonrise!) and to be steps away from the beach, this is your place! For me, waking up and seeing the ocean is soothing and sipping coffee on this deck while experiencing the ocean was perfection. Once you are ready to hit the beach, you walk down the stairs and wa-la, there it is! If you forget something, no worries-- your place is only a few minutes away! It was so nice not to have to lug all the beach stuff and then worry about where we'd find a restroom. Nope-- it's all right there at this place! In addition to the beach, there is a pool and many hot tubs. I'm particular about my hot tubs, but this one did not disappoint. They kept it hot enough to relax those sore spots. We did rent a car and the drive to downtown is about 15 minutes and super easy. We Ubered one night and that was easy. I had a few questions for Butch during our stay and he responded immediately. Recycle in town. Butch will send you the link. Grocery is 2 miles away.

This stay exceeded our expectations! Everything was perfect, would recommend to friends and family!

We have stayed in Chris' condo for 4 years..enjoyed very stay . condo is equipped with everything you could need or want ...always clean and filled with owner pride...view from balcony is second to none..over these years we have noticed the entire complex has been well maintained..close to St Augustine historic area..they fire the cannons on weekends!..and outlet mall...enjoy eating at seafood kitchen..get the seafood platter for 2! ..good communication and Chris is always quick to respond..thanks Chris for letting us stay in your condo ..or your little piece or paradise...

Fantastic place. Had everything we needed for a great stay. Pool, restaurant, and other amenities within the community were excellent. Great communication with the owner. We will be back.

We had an amazing time! My best Friend and I came down with my two kids (ages 8,6) for spring break. Place was just as described. Was clean, and cutely decorated with a beach theme. Had some games for the kids as well. There was a list of great recommendations for things to do and restaurants close by. I had a few questions and host was very friendly and quick to respond! Just a short walk to the beach, but located conveniently right across from the pool! Hot tub was nice and relaxing, located in the middle of the building on the first floor. If you’re driving I would recommend brining your own beach chairs, as the ones provided in the unit are not very comfortable. Beach is gorgeous!we loved staying on the beach and just a short drive to this historic downtown area. We highly recommend staying here! Definitely grab breakfast at island donuts!

This was a very cozy place to stay. It had everything we needed. Beautiful view of the ocean. We would stay here again
